CAREERS IN GEOGRAPHY:

Many people see geography simply as a course taught in school and therefore, assume geographers are only found within the education community.  On the contrary, careers in geography can be found across the spectrum from business and industry to government and planning.

“The geographer carefully observes and measures the human use of the earth under diverse combinations of natural and cultural environments.  Such observations and measurements yield geographical knowledge that will help us to understand our changing world and its parts and will improve the performance of business, management, law, education, planning, public affairs, and other professions.”
